Goku's Return
"H-how do you know my dad?" Gohan asked, clearly confused.
Trunks, who is still floating above the Z-Warriors, smiled friendly. "I've never actually met him personally, I'm just a fan." Bra raised a brow to this.
"Really? That's the best you can come up with?"
"I know, it just kinda came out." The male Saiyan whispered back. He then smiled at the group below once more. "Come and follow me if you're interested, I promise I'm not an enemy."
Trunks flew off, heading to Goku's landing site with Bra trailing behind closely.
Gohan jumped up into the air enthusiastically. "I'm going!" he said, blasted off towards the other half-breeds, clearly giddy that his father was returning.
"Gohan wait!" Krillin cried out as he rushed to catch up with him.
Vegeta, Piccolo, Tien, and Chiaotzu followed shortly after. Yamcha, along with Puar, was about to follow after them but screeched to a halt upon hearing a certain blue-haired women shout out.
"Hey! Don't you dare leave me behind you hear!" She said, shaking her fist at him.
The former bandit sighed annoyingly, but nevertheless plucked Bulma around her waist and rushed to cover the distance with the others.
"Wahhaaa not so fast!"
Yamcha rolled his eyes.

Trunks and Bra landed in a rocky plain area, which had scattered smooth terrains that were leveled inches above the dusty ground. It didn't take too long for the Z-Fighters to catch up, landing near them.
The Saiyan with the pink shirt instantly strode to the younger male one. "Okay boy, I want answers! Who are you and what are you doing here!?"
Trunks' vision landed on his father for the first time in his life. He's exactly like mother told me.
"Well?! Answer me!" The Saiyan Prince all but shouted, impatiently.
The half-breed stared at the ground with interest, unable to look at his father in the eyes. "I'm sorry…I can't answer neither of those questions. I will say this however; I'm waiting here to speak with Goku."
Vegeta snarled, clearly displeased at the boy's response. "Humph, anything you can tell Kakarot, you can tell me!"
"I'm sorry, I just can't…" Vegeta growled once again before stomping away.
Gohan hastily walked up to Trunks, wanting to ask a question also. "So you were a Super Saiyan while fighting Frieza right?"
"Yeah, I was." The lavender haired saiyan answered as he pulled a capsule out of one of his jacket's many pockets. He tossed it downwards, which went poof once it hit the earth; a small refrigerator appeared. He opened the fridge, revealing many different kinds of beverages. "Grab something to drink if you want. Goku won't be here for another two hours."
"Lies!" the Prince said, voicing his opinion. "Kakarot and I, along with his half breed brat over there are the only saiyan's left! So there is no way you could be a Saiyan!"
Trunk decided not to respond, since he couldn't risk revealing that he got his Saiyan blood from him. Everyone was hesitant to grab a drink, so he decided to grab one for himself to prove that it was safe. "Believe me, it's safe to drink." He took a sip.
"Do you have lemonade?" the bald monk asked.
"Sure."
Krillin, deciding to trust him, strode towards the mini fridge. Finding what he was searcher for, he grabbed the can and snapped it open; the can hissed softly. "He wasn't lying guys!" He said once he took a sip.
"I hope he has grape in there." Gohan laughed out as he ran to grab a drink. Bulma and Yamcha also joined in.
While Krillin was enjoying his soft drink, he noticed that the mysterious woman hasn't said anything thus far so he asked her a question. "Did you come with the other guy?"
Everyone in the area immediately faced Bra, causing her to blush profoundly at all the attention. "Umm no I didn't."
"Oh, then why do you guys have similar jackets?"
"Why do you have a sword just like him?" Gohan added.
Bra looked away anxiously, panic clearly written on her face. Man, how do I get myself in these predicaments!
Trunks noticed this and jumped right in for the save. "No she didn't. In fact I've never seen her before until today."
Yamcha observed the female Saiyan, clearly liking what he saw. She's pretty cute! In fact if I didn't know any better, she almost looks like… his thoughts came to a halt. "Bulma!" said person's name faced the scar faced man.
"What?"
He shook his head, "No it wasn't a question, I meant that she looks like you Bulma!"
Bra whitened. Crapcrapcrapcrap…
"Well she kinda does, but so did Maron." Krillin said, giving his own input.
Bulma frowned. "Hey! Don't compare me to that skank! She looks nothing like me!" She cried out, smacking the bold monk upside the head.
"Is it possible that you are here for a similar reason?" Piccolo, who was the furthest from the group, asked.
Bra decided to give them something, seeing as how they were never going to stop questioning her if she didn't. "While I was down at the site he killed Frieza, he didn't say anything other then…"She trailed off, quickly realizing that she was going to break her promise to Trunks. "Ugh I can't tell anyone anything… at least not yet-" Everyone but Vegeta, Tien and Piccolo groaned, clearly hating all the secrecy. "But I will to tell you my name. It's Bulla." She lied.
Everyone seemed to believe her… except the green namek. His hearing is more superior than any human or Saiyan.
Trunk's sighed with relief, glad that she caught herself from saying his name. I wonder if that's her real name…no that can't be it because why would she tell us a different name than the one she told me earlier on. Trunks eyes widen. Darn it, she might have just said that to get my name! Either she told them another name to throw me off or the name she told me earlier is the truth.
After all the inquires, everyone present became silent for about an hour. Fifteen minutes later, Vegeta noticed that Bra kept on sneaking glances at him with a small smile.
Unable to take it anymore, he decided to give her a piece of his mind. "Hey! Why do you keep looking at me?!"
Her smile widened. "It's just that you look weird in that shirt. You're a bad man huh?" she giggled.
Vegeta grunted with disgust. "The woman over there refused to give me another shirt! I'm a prince, so I should be treated like one!"
Bulma glared at the peeved Saiyan. "Oh hush you!" she demand but then smiled sweetly. "I happen to think that shirt makes you look handsome."
Yamcha's face screwed up, clearly disliking the compliment his girlfriend said to the pointy haired man. Vegeta noticed this and smirked smugly.
After the remaining forty-five minutes passed, the young saiyan's watch beeped softly. "Well that's it; he should be here any minute now." He said standing up, stretching his slightly cramped legs.
His prediction was confirmed when a small dot in the sky began approaching.
"Hey! That must be him! Daaaddd!" Gohan cried out, jumping up and down with joy.
As the attack-ball came closer and closer, everyone trailed after it as it flew right over them, crashing loudly fifty feet away, creating a deep crater upon impact.
Once everyone was within range, they waited patiently, hoping that it was the Earth's hero in the small pod.
The hatch door opened, revealing that it was indeed the earth raised Saiyan. As he planted his first step on the ground, he sighed, relieved that he was finally out of the claustrophobic ship. Gohan smiled and laughed jubilantly, causing the Saiyan's attention to snap sharply to the source.
"Welcome back Goku!" Yamcha hollered, smiling brightly.
The powerful Saiyan looked at his group of friends with bafflement. "Hey guys…How did you all know I was going to be here?!"
"This boy over here told us." Piccolo answered, gesturing to the lavender haired man. "He also finished the job you didn't back on Namek. He turned into a Super Saiyan and killed Frieza with ease. This girl over here also transformed and finished off his father."
Goku gauged both of the half-breeds and whistled, clearly surprised. "Wow! They are so young! That's incredible!"
"Hey Goku, did you know Frieza was going to arrive here today?" Krillin asked.
He nodded. "Yeah, I actually saw him on the way over here! It's kinda hard to miss a ship that massive!" He said, rubbing the back of his head sheepishly.
Trunks finally spoke. "Then good thing I arrived when I did or you wouldn't have had a planet to land on."
"No, I could have gotten here instantly if I wanted too with a technique I learned in space. I'll tell you all about it later."
"Oh… So why didn't you use it to get here?"
"Oh…I didn't think that through…" He trailed off. Everyone smacked their forehead except Piccolo, Vegeta, and Tien.
"That's Goku for ya." Bulma said with a smile, despite the fact that his mistake could have put the whole planet in jeopardy.
Trunks spoke again. "Uhh listen Goku, I need to speak to you privately, so could you follow me?"
"Sure thing."
Both the Saiyan's took off, leaving the rest of the group behind.
"Man, what could be so important that he wants to only tell Goku and not us?" Krillin pondered. No one said anything, not knowing how to answer that.
As Trunks and Goku had their private conversation, Bra began to deeply think over what she was going to do from here on out. I left my timeline to not only start a new life elsewhere, but to also warn everyone here about Majin Buu. However, that's not supposed to happen for another twenty years! So what's the point! The aqua-haired Saiyan screamed in her mind. Maybe…just maybe I should tell someone. Her mother was the first to be booted since she wouldn't know what to do with the information soBra took a look at Gohan and Krillin; No I can't tell Gohan since he's still too young here and as for Krillin, I never knew him that well so I don't feel comfortable telling him.
Bra was so distracted with her thoughts that she never noticed that Goku and Trunks had both transform into their Super Saiyan forms. She then turned to Tien and Yamcha but came to the same conclusion as Krillin. She definitely wasn't going to tell her father since her mother told her that the Saiyan Prince had trusting issues at this point and time. As for Piccolo, she does trust him but felt that it wouldn't be wise to tell him since he would probably tell everyone, believing that preparing as soon as possible is the best thing. But then again, it is better to be safe than sorry right? Ughh I'm so afraid and lost and I just don't know what to do! Bra felt like her head was going to explode from all the stress building up inside. Once she calmed down, she froze and said one name. Goku…I always trusted him since he never had trouble keeping secrets, so if I'm going to tell someone it's gotta be him. Is that why Trunks is talking to him only?
Bra sighed, clearly becoming tired of all the thoughts swarming inside her mind. Her eyes locked with her mother's; Bulma stared back in confusion, trying to figure out the mysterious girl. Mom… I would give anything to just be able to jump in your arms and hold you…I missed you so much in my timeline and now that you're in front of me, I can't even say anything without threatening my existence. Why did that time machine have to send me so far back in time!? Even though she knew the reason why, she felt that it was easier to put the blame on anything but herself.
Damn you Buu!
DBZDBZDBZDBZxxxxxxxxxDBZDBZDBZDBZ
"I shouldn't be doing this Goku, but I feel like some history should change. My mother told me you could make a difference and now I believe her."
"Your mom knows me?"
"Yeah."
"Oh really? Does she know me now or will she later?"
"She's standing over there."
Goku turned around, faced his group of friends and then turned back to Trunks. "Ohh you mean the young woman that is similarly dressed like you?"
Trunks choked up. "Wh-what? No! I've never seen her in my life until just today!"
Goku's eyes enlarged. "So that mean… BULMA IS!?"
Trunks nodded, blushing brightly.
"Wow, I never thought I'd see the day! But you know, that girl looks a lot like Bulma when she was younger."
"I know… it's very strange. Maybe you should go talk to her, since she won't be going anywhere anytime soon."
"And why is that?"
"Well here's the weird thing. She came here in a time machine too…but when I last saw it, it was wrecked. So unless my mother from this timeline can fix time machine's (which she most likely can't) She's stuck here."
Goku cocked his head in confusion. "Do you think she came here to warn us about some disaster from the future too?"
Trunks froze. "God I hope not! You already have to deal with the Androids! But listen Goku, I have to leave. My mom is probably worried sick about me."
The older Saiyan shook his head and smiled warmly. "Thanks Trunks and don't worry, I won't say a word to anyone. Tell your mom I send my love."
Trunks smiled and nodded, pulled out the capsule that contained his time machine and tossed it down to the earth. Once it was out in the open, he stepped in, closed the hatch dome door and began to lift off. The half Saiyan gave a final wave to Goku and the rest of the Z-Fighters then winked out of view. The older Saiyan begins to walk back to the group, still deep in thought on what the lavender haired teenager told him.
DBZDBZDBZDBZxxxxxxxxxDBZDBZDBZDBZ
"Wow… he just left like that? I wonder what was that thing he was in?"
Krillin agreed. "Yeah Gohan, did you see how it just disappeared?" The young Saiyan's head bobbed up and down.
Tien grunted, clearly upset about something so he decided to voice it. "It bothers me that he just came to defeat Frieza, which I'm grateful for mind you, and only talk to Goku, leaving us hanging."
Vegeta said nothing but somewhat agreed silently with his arms crossed over his chest.
Seconds later, Goku had reached his group of friends, smiling genuinely.
"So Goku buddy, mind telling us how you survived on Namek and maybe tell us what the kid told you back there?" Yamcha asked.
The Saiyan didn't mind answering the first question but as for the second, he promised Trunks he wouldn't say anything. The Super Saiyan began his story of how he survived Namek's destruction, where he had been all this time and of the instant transmission technique, which he demonstrated much to everyone's surprise.
However, when the time came to explain what Trunks had told him, he was lost for words. But Piccolo wasn't. He had heard everything and said that they all needed to know (Of course leaving out the information that that would prevent the boy's birth) so they could prepare themselves for the killer androids. Bra was the most affected by the news because last she remember, her mother never talked about androids. Oh man, this doesn't look good. This gives me more of a reason to not say anything! How can I add more to their already full plate?
Once everything was said, the group once again turned to the aqua haired Saiyaness much to her dismay. She turned as red as a tomato and smiled weakly.
"Sooo now are you going to tell us your story?" Her clueless mother asked.
Bra coughed uneasily, trying to find something to say. "Uhhh maybe some other time."
The Z-Warriors, deciding that pushing the subject would get them no where, began to take their leave…except Goku.
Gohan, who noticed this, stopped and tilted his head in confusion. "Dad? Aren't you coming?"
His father smiled. "Sure I am, I just need to have a word with this girl here and I'll be on my way. So get going now."
His son was hesitant for a second but nevertheless did what he was told, flying off to catch up with the other.
He then faced Bra, who was shyly looking at her feet, finding it more interesting at the moment. "So the kid told me that you had a time machine? At least tell me what you are doing here….wait…" He stiffened suddenly, gauging the girl in front of him. And that's when it hit him like a ton of bricks. "You-your Bulma's daughter!" He spluttered out.
Bra turned green. "W-why would you say that?" Damn you Trunks! Why did you have to tell him that!?
Goku rubbed his chin thoughtfully. "Well…you came in a time machine, Trunks told me yours looked like his and you're practically a spitting image of her!"
"B-But-" Oh screw it! "Yes I am…." She gave in.
Goku smiled brightly. "Don't worry; just like I told the him, I won't say a thing! So what's your name?"
The girl sighed, clearly hating the situation. "It's Bra, but I lied to your friends and told them my name is Bulla. So around them call me by that."
Goku nodded. "So you're half Saiyan… I have a hunch you got the Saiyan blood from Vegeta right?"
Bra sighed. "Yeah, I did."
"Wow… that's…" Goku paused, unable to finish his words. Man! Bra and Trunks have no idea that they are related! But does that make them true siblings if they each came from two different timelines? Who would have thought that on my first day back on Earth, I'd meet Bulma and Vegeta's future kids!
"So did you come here to warn us of an upcoming threat also?"
"Listen Goku…" Bra started. She was too nervous to explain herself. "I'm not ready to talk about this… but I will tell you eventually. In my timeline, I always trusted you the most." She said, blushing terribly. Bra has always had a little crush on the Saiyan facing her. She says it's just a faze, nothing more. Well if it is, it's a very LONG one. She groaned mentally.
Goku gave the teenage saiyan the famous Son grin. "Well I'm flattered! Trunks said the-" the hero clamped his mouth shut with shock, clearly in disbelief at revealing the time travelers name. So much for being able to trust me huh! He thought, feeling extremely guilty.
"It's okay; I talked to him shortly after we dealt with Frieza and his father. I coxed him into telling me his name by telling him mine first."
Goku exhaled with relief.
"You don't have a place to stay at do you?"
"Unfortunately no… and before you say it, I can't go to Capsule Corp because I fear that they will find out who I am. I mean you're right, the resemblance between my mother and I is undeniable."
Goku agreed. "Yeah, you're so tiny and don't look like a fighter at all."
Bra's eyes narrowed, giving the other Saiyan a nasty glare, making him duck with fear. Wow, she certainly is Bulma's daughter!
"Then where will you go?"
Bra pressed her index fingers together, head stooping down nervously, "Well I was wondering if I could stay at your place…"
The Super Saiyan laughed heartily. "Sure, that'll be no problem!"
Bra smiled.
"Let's go then!" Goku said, already airborne.
Bra was about to do the same, but stopped suddenly, remembering something important. "Uhh you go ahead; I'll follow your ki signature to catch up." The older Saiyan cocked his head questionably, but nonetheless nodded and took off.
"Whoa, I almost forgot the time machine!" She said, taking off to the location she left it at.
The sight that greeted her caused her to grimace. It's completely wrecked. I highly doubt that my mother from this time can fix it. Not that it matters anyways.
She sighed sadly, already missing her good life in the future. The future before Majin Buu demolished it. Pushing it to the back of her mind, she re-capsulized and pocketed the time machine and then took to the air, heading to the Son's house hold.
